A lovely fruity taste. Kept on drinking over several glasses.
heard Jean Smullen give glowing review on Moncrieff's Movies & Booze segment on Newstalk. She was spot on!
It reminds me to Burgundy. Mineral, lovely acidity, and tropical fruits.

Château Beauchêne Permier Terroir Côtes du Rhône 2017, France
"This estate dates from 1794 and is one of the oldest in the region. They make fine Châteauneuf-du-Pape (on sale for a bargain €28 at the moment), but do not stint on the quality of the fruit used for their Côtes du Rhône labels. Aromas of plum and spice with wild damson notes in the background, supple and concentrated with layered dark and red fruits and solid length."
Château Beauchêne Châteauneuf-du-Pape Blanc 2019, France
"I don’t mention white Châteauneuf-du-Pape often enough - this is sourced from the estate’s ‘Vignobles de la Serrière’ vineyard in the north of the Appellation, a blend of Bourboulenc, Roussanne, Grenache Blanc and Clairette with luscious acacia flower and honeysuckle aromas, pear and tropical fruits on the palate with a textured honeycomb character on the finish, perfect with lobster or crab, or for a luxurious picnic."
